Hopefully it's just the prism contacts, which are usually easy to fix. See my other post. I don't think the prism-body contact pins could get bent - the contact there is made very flexible by way of thin springmounted metal sheet. Unless it's the shutter flash contacts, which would seem unlikely as the shutter still works, I think it is the contacts inside the prism and the hotshoe. Frank, don't give up hope yet! I have once repaired the loose hotshoe problem when on a shoot during a pause on a restaurant table ;-) Frantisek
